Bookkeeping & Accounting

Books that reconcile every month, not just at tax time.

Full-cycle bookkeeping, historical cleanup and month-end close for small businesses on QuickBooks Online, Xero and other platforms.

Services

Everything between the bank feed and the financial statements.

Monthly bookkeeping

Transaction categorization, bank and credit card reconciliations, and a monthly close with P&L and balance sheet.

Catch-up & cleanup

Months or years behind? We rebuild the books from statements, fix misclassified transactions and clear uncategorized balances.

Chart of accounts design

A chart of accounts built around how your business earns and spends, mapped so it flows cleanly to your tax return.

Reconciliations

Bank, credit card, loan, merchant processor and payroll clearing accounts reconciled to source statements.

Accounts payable & receivable

Bill entry, vendor payment tracking, invoicing and aging reports so you know who owes what.

Cash-to-accrual adjustments

Accruals, prepaid expenses and deferred revenue entries for lenders, investors or accrual-basis returns.

Financial statements

Profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow statements, plus management reports for owners and boards.

Fixed assets & depreciation

Asset registers, depreciation schedules and loan amortization tied to your general ledger.

Specialized accounting

Intercompany due-to/due-from, shareholder loans, leases, inventory, e-commerce payouts and IOLTA trust bookkeeping.

Month-end close

What we check before your books are called closed.

Our close checklist runs the same way every month, for every client. Nothing is reported until it ties out.

  • Every bank and credit card account reconciled to the month-end statement balance
  • Uncategorized income, uncategorized expense and Ask My Accountant balances cleared to zero
  • Loan balances agreed to lender statements, with interest split from principal
  • Payroll expense and liabilities matched to payroll provider reports
  • Merchant processor deposits matched to gross sales, fees and refunds
  • Undeposited funds and clearing accounts reviewed for stale items
  • Owner contributions and draws posted to equity, not to income or expense
  • Accounts receivable and payable agings reviewed against open invoices and bills
  • Fixed asset additions capitalized and depreciation posted
  • Financial statements reviewed for unusual swings before delivery
